Runnin 8.2 on both an iPhone 6 and an iPad Air 2.

Just realized when the screen dims, on the iPhone if you just touch the home button (don't press), the screen goes bright again.

However, on the Air 2, that doesn't happen.

Odd.

It's probably because of Reachability, it's waiting for the second tap.

You must have a strange definition of "Easter Egg"...
 
It's been like that since iOS 8.0. The touch sensor always detects skin contact for reachability.
 
TouchID capabilities on iPhone 6 vs none on iPad 2 perhaps? I guess a better test would be iPhone 5S vs 5 on iOS 8.
